Best of all, I went to his campaign website and clicked on the "donate" button. Don't worry, I didn't send a dime. The donate page is an "https" page - encrypted. His web provider, NGP VAN, says that campaign donations to their liberal pod people customers are protected by SSL.
But maybe that's not so inconsistent. SSL only protects data in flight, not stored at either end, and SSL certificates are, at least in common practice, controlled by a small cabal of certificate authorities, much like Mr. Cooper might see his legislature controlling his constituents.
What a dork.
I didn't see it in the bill, but I'll bet that he will want to exclude lawmakers under this law. There is no way that he would want to give up his precious freedom of privacy, but he wants to be able to see what the general populace is doing.
